NSFW Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Has anyone else done this on an 05 or 06 LGT? I'm just wondering if there's anything I should know that's not in the instructions. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSFW Posted July 12, 2009 Author Share Posted July 12, 2009 Yeah, I've heard it's a time-consuming PITA, that's why I'm looking for tips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSFW Posted July 12, 2009 Author Share Posted July 12, 2009 Now: UP/DP/MP/YP, FMIC, AEM CAI Coming: TGV-, ATP3076, 3" CAI The butt dyno will register big improvements I am sure, but not all due to the inlet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

subaruski Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Perrin is 3" how big is the AVO one from Rallitek? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSFW Posted July 12, 2009 Author Share Posted July 12, 2009 Perrin has both 3" and 2.4" versions. I'm guessing the AVO unit is 2.4" (stock size) based on the picture and the fact that they don't say anything about requiring an aftermarket turbo. It's probably a direct replacement for the stock inlet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subaruski Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 so you are going to be running the 3" inlet for the 3076 turbo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSFW Posted July 12, 2009 Author Share Posted July 12, 2009 Yep... ordered both last week, waiting for them to arrive... Bunch of other little odds-and-ends are going on at the same time, I'll post a thread when it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wangspeed Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 A 3" inlet isn't really necessary on the GT3076 based turbos. Will it help? That's arguable. The compressor wheel is only 57mm. Besides, are you running a 3" intake as well? Warren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
